When the classical Rayleigh-B\'enard (RB) system is rotated about its vertical axis roughly three regimes can be identified. In regime I (weak rotation) the large scale circulation (LSC) is the dominant feature of the flow. In regime II…
The stability of density-stratified viscous Taylor-Couette flows is considered using the Boussinesq approximation but without any use of the short-wave approximation. The flows which are unstable after the Rayleigh criterion (\hat \mu<\hat…
Recent investigations show that steady solutions share many features with turbulent Rayleigh--B\'enard convection (RBC) and form the state space skeleton of turbulent dynamics. Previous computations of steady roll solutions in…
Experiments in a modified Taylor-Couette device, spanning Reynolds numbers of $10^5$ to greater than $10^6$, reveal the nonlinear stability of astrophysically-relevant flows. Nearly ideal rotation, expected in the absence of axial…
In one-dimensional anharmonic lattices, we construct nonlinear standing waves (SWs) reducing to harmonic SWs at small amplitude. For SWs with spatial periodicity incommensurate with the lattice period, a transition by breaking of…
Despite the presence of strong fluctuations, many turbulent systems such as Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection and Taylor-Couette flow display self-organized large-scale flow patterns. How do small-scale turbulent fluctuations impact the…
We simulate numerically Boussinesq convection in non-rotating spherical shells for a fluid with a unity Prandtl number and Rayleigh numbers up to $10^9$. In this geometry, curvature and radial variations of the gravitationnal acceleration…
We use well resolved numerical simulations with the Lattice Boltzmann Method to study Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in cells with a fractal boundary in two dimensions for $Pr = 1$ and $Ra \in \left[10^7, 10^{10}\right]$. The fractal…
We investigate theoretically the nonlinear state of ideal straight rolls in the Rayleigh-B\'enard system of a fluid layer heated from below with a porous medium using a Galerkin method. Applying the Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation, binary…
Rotating spiral patterns in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection are known to induce azimuthal flows, which raises the question of how different neighboring spirals interact with each other in spiral chaos, and the role of hydrodynamics in this…
Recently, Kaladze and Misra [Phys. Scr. 99 (2024) 085013] showed that the tropospheric stratified fluid flows may be unstable by the effects of the negative temperature gradient and the temperature-dependent density inhomogeneity arising…
Anelastic convection at high Rayleigh number in a plane parallel layer with no slip boundaries is considered. Energy and entropy balance equations are derived, and they are used to develop scaling laws for the heat transport and the…
It is shown using three series of Rayleigh number simulations of varying aspect ratio AR and Prandtl number Pr that the normalized dissipation at the wall, while significantly greater than 1, approaches a constant dependent upon AR and Pr.…
A turbulent-laminar banded pattern in plane Couette flow is studied numerically. This pattern is statistically steady, is oriented obliquely to the streamwise direction, and has a very large wavelength relative to the gap. The mean flow,…
The effect of uniform magnetic field applied along a fixed horizontal direction in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in low-Prandtl-number fluids has been studied using a low dimensional model. The model shows the onset of convection (primary…
We study an effect of large-scale coherent structures on global properties of turbulent convection in laboratory experiments in air flow in a rectangular chamber with aspect ratios $A \approx 2$ and $A\approx 4$ (with the Rayleigh numbers…
Unlike the power-law model, the Ellis model describes the apparent viscosity of a shear-thinning fluid with no singularity in the limit of a vanishingly small shear stress. In particular, this model matches the Newtonian behaviour when the…
We present experimental data and their theoretical interpretation for the decay rates of temperature fluctuations in a thin layer of a fluid heated from below and confined between parallel horizontal plates. The measurements were made with…
We study the effects of Prandtl number $Pr$ and Rayleigh number $Ra$ in two-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection without boundaries, i.e. with periodic boundary conditions. In the limits of $Pr \to 0$ and $\infty$, we find that the…
Conditions for the onset of nonpenetrative convection in a horizontal Boussinesq fluid layer subject to a step change in temperature are studied using propagation theory. A wide range of Prandtl numbers and two different kinematic boundary…
